Tom Reynolds. Once again, this is how our community pulls together
and helps one of our own.
PARKS & RECREATION PARKS & RECREATION/SHADE TREE: Committee Chairperson
SttADE TREE Fazekas said that he wanted to remind everybody that Ethnic Day is
September 8th and right now we have fifty booths reserved. We have
three bands, balloon rides for the children and amusements followed "-'
by fireworks. In Comell Park we are putting in a volley ball court and
we are also putting in some trees. Along with that he said he has been
reviewing the parks and there was an article in the paper about the
parks in Carteret. He said he compiled a list of"hot spots" in the parks,
things that should be repaired immediately. He said he would like the
Mayor and Council to review his list. What he wants to do with some
of those hot spots is to have some of the park workers out there. The
residents were able to let us know that they would be more than happy
to correct it. The hot spots may be metal and rocks protruding out of
the play areas, lie said he received a phone call concerning the
baseball field where you open the gate and drop down around six
inches. We will try to correct those areas. He said he had a meeting
with the Engineer concerning the retaining wall on Sullivan Field. The
wall seems pretty solid but the concrete, from Carteret Park, is pulling
up on one side. They are going to probably pour concrete in the area,
not by the bleachers. There is going to be some grass and trees instead
of all concrete. He said he held "on the spot meetings" with some of
the park workers and what he was trying to do was standardize park
equipment, meaning to have all the same benches, all the same trash
cans, san~e kind of fences. This way we have some kind of uniformity ~
with the parks. If we are able to have a standard unified look, we will
be able to use our purchasing power in terms of quantity. Our summer
program is nearing completion. He said he wanted everyone to know
that they had nearly four hundred people that participated. Today was
the last day of our summer program and that was over one hundred
children. Every third Wednesday of the month at 7:00 P.M. the
Borough Parks and Recreation Committee meet. Please come. With
that, progress.
POLICE POLICE: Committee Chairperson Santoro said she wanted to thank
Bobby Talalai and Tommy Curran for their participation in

homicide in town on June 9th and she wanted to mention some of the
officers in that investigation. Detective Krowl and Detective Novack,
Lieutenant D. Tarrant assisted in the investgation. Detective Csimbok
did the identification and gathered evidence and photographed the
area. The following list of officers were the first to respond to the
scene and either administered First Aid, protected the crime scene or
started to canvas the area and collect information. Sergeant McFadden,
Patrolman Sal Renda, Sergeant Makwinski, Donald Earp, L. Craig and
Wayne Hundemann. They all proved to be very helpful in the
apprehension of the suspect. The Carteret Housing Authority has been
very helpful and they have provided a safe environment for a

the water goes into for the storm drain, sometimes you will see
recycables going down into the pit the sewer track does not have to
suck it out of the sewers. We have blades that just came in and are
going to be tapped right into the mouth of the sewer. They look like a

COMMENTS Mayor Failace said he was going to appoint a voting member to the
Urban Enterprise Zone. Chico Basilici is a very active veteran and he
is very active in town. lie has promise that he will remain very active
although he recently celebrated his 100th birthday. He apologized for
not mentioning this earlier, but former Councilmember Karen Fedroff
passed away a few weeks ago. Please remember her in your prayers.
The Mayor again thanked Susan Skoczpiec and Lieutenant Talalai for
their work with National Night Out. He said he went out with
Councilwoman Quinones and Director Elg. They visited twenty homes
and they had a great time. lie said it was a long night but it went very
well and a lot of the Seniors sat out there waiting for us. He said he
appreciated the fact that they did and he wanted to thank all the
members of the CCAC for Saturday's affair. Rain or not it was a
wonderful affair. He said he wanted to thank Stanley Gutowski for
helping set up the Sound Stage. We went through seven or eight
hundred hot dogs. The Mayor said he wanted to thank the Pastor's
wife and children, they sang on the sound stage and the Gospel Group
from Newark and the First Baptist Church had a group there. When we
do it again next year more people have to come because it was a great
time. He said he wanted to thank all the police that Councilmember
Santoro mentioned and Sergeant Mirandi and Detective Tardiff were
there too. The Board of Health, The First Aid and the Firefighters

said residents of the Housing Authority have brought it to her attention
on several occasions. She said she has received numerous phone calls
regarding (inaudible) that Officer Hundermann who patrols Bergen
Street is making a difference in the attitude of some of the residents.
She said she would like to state her personal appreciation for Officer
Hundermann's job performance while she was (inaudible). She said
she would like to state her appreciation to the Officers who
participated in the Bergen Street Patrol and to their dedication to the
authority and (inaudible). Thank you for the time and assistance of the
Carteret Police Department (inaudible) and do not hesitate to call Eric
Chubenko. She thanked everyone.
PUBLIC WORKS: Committee Chairperson Sohayda reported that PUBLIC WORKS
Sam Lugo was rushed to the hospital last Monday morning. He said he
was glad to see him up and around. He thanked Dan Reiman for
coming with him in regard to the bus. We were very fortunate in
finding this bus. This bus was surrendered through the dealer in Red
Bank on Friday afternoon. He said one of his classmates from college
sent Dan and himself down there with about one hour notice. As it
worked out Ford is taking the bus and we are going to be financing
with them for a used vehicle at 5%. He said he would like to thank Mr.
Adams and the Dodge and Lincoln Mercury Dealership for their help.
We were handed a letter on August 1st the Manella sanitation people
will no longer picking up our garbage. It just came out that the bid was
over. We were lucky enough to have the Dauman people jump right in
within three days notice to start picking up our garbage. This will only
take place until the bid, unless they win the bid, which takes place in
-- October. In the Streets and Roads Department we have been painting
the lines in preparation of the new school year. As you can tell, most
of the lines are done. We will then go to the Churches and the
Municipal Parking lot. We are going to be relocating the Recycling
Plant down over by the Waterfront area because the Sewage Building
has to be demolished. We will have to relocate for ninety days. That
seems to be putting a lot of effort in figuring out where we are going to
put the Recycling Plant for three months. The Leaf Program is going
to be starting and everyone wants their bags. They can really start
picking them up right now. They were put up in Sally Mesler's office
today. If you need the bags in a hurry they are up there but he believes
they will start giving them out on September 4th. The flags on Carteret
Avenue are the markings for the Public Utility. We are having some
work done on Carteret Avenue and the flags and the orange paint that
you all see is to notify the people doing the work where the utilities are
so there are no accidents or damage to the underlying pipes and wires
that are under the road. The buses for the Seniors and hopefully we are
taking on this new one and the older of the two are in dire need of an
air conditioning system. We have been doing everything we can for
the white bus as far as having it repaired. It seems that there is no
replacement part in the whole Tri-State area for this van. Due to our
__ vacation schedule general work on the sewers has been done. The
garage has been keeping up with the cars, maintenance and mostly air
conditioning. One of the things that the Council has been working on
for the last several months was the acquisition of a new vacuum truck.
He said he is proud and pleased to announce that it was delivered
around 1:00 P.M. down at the DPW. It looks big and mean and it
should clean a lot of sewers. We have to get it registered and insured
and we are ready to go. Two weeks ago there was a sinkhole located
on the football field and that is being repaired. The sewer plates that

wished that somebody would tell him, as a taxpayer, why we are doing
this.
DISHUSSlOI~I Councilmember Sohayda asked Mr. Mancuso what he did when he
had the same department. He then asked him what he did with the dirt
from the sweepings.
Mr. Mancuso replied there is eighty-seven thousand dollars worth of
sweepings over there and he had it taken away for eight thousands
dollars.
Councilmember Sohayda said he thought there were some mitigating
circumstance as to how you did that.
Mr. Mancuso said he investigated what they were doing, he had test
made and it was taken for eight thousand dollars. He said it had
nothing to do with what he was talking about.
Mayor Failace said Mr. Mancuso knows about the street sweepings
from the County.
Mr. Mancuso said yes but he could not get an answer back then either.
Councilmember Sohayda said he called up the Director of County and
he said they don't sweep unless it is for a parade or some kind of
(inaudible).
Mr. Mancuso said so as far as that goes we just leave it there.
Councilmember Sohayda said that was the answer he got.
Mr. Mancuso said he would call the Board of Health.
Councilmember Sohayda said the Board of Health should be at the
Board of Health Meeting not the Council Meeting.
Mr. Mancuso said Councilmember Sohayda wanted him to do his
work.
Councilmember Sohayda replied that he wanted him to do what would
make him happy.
Mr. Mancuso asked whose responsibility is it?
Councilmember Sohayda replied the Streets & Roads Department.
Mr. Mancuso said they should call the Port Authority. He asked why
as a taxpayer, should he pay for what the County is supposed to be
doing?
Councilmember Sohayda replied that he didn't know. He then asked
Mr. Mancuso why he paid when he was a Councilman.
Mr. Mancuso said he did not want to say what Councilmember
Sohayda sounded like.

shared the day. Also, the East Point Cadet Academy Step-up's were CONTINUED
there and they ~vere great. It is a wonderful program and it is
somewhat funded by the MCEOC and the Mayor said he is a member
of the board of trustees. He said he is going to try to get them for
Ethnic Day. We are going to try to have a portion of that group come
from Carteret and have some of our young people become involved, it
was just a wonderful thing to see. The Freeholders meeting in Union
County was somewhat disappointing. It was a long night and he was
there with Councilmember Reiman, Councilmember Sohayda and
Councilmember Santoro. The decision was made long before we got
there. Freeholder Sullivan was asleep. He fell asleep a few times and
someone took a picture. After the meeting ~vas over, Freehold
(inaudible) recessed and they went into discuss it and Freeholder
(inaudible) came out with a fifteen minute prepared statement.
Woodbridge was there and they put on a wonderful program. They
showed their Fire Department; The Board of Health and Mayor
O'Brien from Metuchen was there. This is absolutely not over. We
will continue to go and continue to do whatever is necessary
(inaudible) employees and citizens. The residents of Middlesex
County have no concerns. It is not only Middlesex County but also all
of New Jersey. In a report, Mayor O'Brien stated that we had done this
in Carteret, Woodbridge and Metuchen. If it is still 99.9 % effective, it
is still going to put six million pounds of garbage into the Arthur Kill
and that garbage will probably end up on New Jersey's Shores. It is a
terrible thing and it is all money. Carteret was offered more money,
Jersey City was offered more money and Linden just took it. The next
time there is a meeting he urges the citizens to get out there with the
Council and himself and fight this as strongly as possible. The Mayor
said he wanted to thank Mr. Raia and Mr. Sirignano for their donation
of the Fireworks. They saved us a lot of money. The Mayor than spoke
about the Basketball Game and what a wonderful game "he" played.
The Mayor said he wanted to thank Stan Gutowski. About one month
ago he went to Washington with his wife and the Mayor asked him to
take his card and stop and see Congressman Menendez, Senator
Corzine and Senator Torricelli to let them know that he needs to speak
to them about some of the needs of Carteret. The Mayor said he will
continue to call them every few weeks to ensure that Carteret does get
the money.
Upon MMS&C, by Councilmembers Reiman and Fazekas and OPENED FOR
unanimous affirn~ative vote of the five members present, the meeting PUBLIC DISCUSSION
was declared open for Public Discussion.
COMMENTS
Councilmember Santoro said she would be leaving and that if anyone
wanted to ask her a question they should do so now.
__ James Mancuso, Resident asked if there was an Ordinance or a Statute
or an agreement with the County that we sweep the County roads. We
pay to bring s~veepings and most is the County's. The biggest
percentage of that is coming from Washington. So, we are doing
they're s~veeping and we are paying them to take what we are picking
up. And yet, no one can answer me, as a taxpayer, why we are doing
this. He said he wanted someone to show him where this is written.
There is no agreement, no anything. He said it is just ridiculous that
we are paying for stuff that they should be picking up. He said he

Councilmember Reiman said they had something going before the
Zoning Board.
Mayor Failace agreed with Councilmember Reiman, they are going to
DISCOSSION be building a two family home there.
CONTINUED
Councilmember Reiman said they had a title problem with that.
Mayor Failace said as far as keeping it boarded up, he felt we should.
Borough Attorney Robert Bergen said he believed that they had to go
out to bid to demolish the house at 66 Edwin Street. There are some
other properties there and he had discussions with some attorney's th.at
represent some of the owners on two to three others that Tony is
working on. 63 Union Street and the next one is in contract for sale
and the owner wants to purchase some others and rehab those. He said
he just couldn't remember the street address of the other one. If they
don't come forward with the program very quickly we'll be going our
to bid.
Mr. Crudup said he is aware of the abandoned buildings so why can't
we make the owners of this property clean up around the property.
Mayor Failace said they will clean the property.
Mr. Crudup asked when that would be done.
Councilmember Fazekas said that he would have to get back to Mr.
Crudup.
Mayor Failace said they certainly do try to clean the property and to do
what we can but sometimes it is difficult to keep up with it with all the
other things that have to be done. As the Councilman said we will have
to get back to you.
Councilmember Fazekas said he will make sure they let you know
when but we will get it done.
Borough Attorney Robert Bergen said in most cases you cannot locate
the owners. So if they are abandoned, the Governing Body is going to
have to clean the properties. Basically the Borough is going to get a
lien to collect money that just isn't there.
Councilmember Reiman asked if they could start the procedure to stop
these liens.
Borough Attorney Robert Bergen replied on some of the tax liens, yes.
Ann Kushner, Resident said she had a question about the trees that
were planted last year that she paid $85.00 for. She wanted to know if
a tree die will it be replaced.
Mayor Failace said the tree should be replaced. He said she should
contact the department (inaudible).

AUGUST 16, 2001
Patricia Rodriguez, Resident said once again she will talk about the
abandoned houses. She said before she goes any fitrther she wants to
thank (inaudible) and if they were not do~vn there on National Night
Out the xveeds would have grown higher than she is. She said she has DISCUSSION
all sorts of wild life to deal with from rats to (inaudible).
Councilmember Reiman said that Councihnember Sohayda took it
upon himself to hire personal private contractors.
Ms. Rodriguez said she really appreciated that he did that but she has
done some research. The City of Plainfield has raised thirty-eight
houses this past summer and if any of the Councilmembers want~
copies of the article she ~vill mail it out to them. They entered into a
contract with Century 21 out of Westfield, New Jersey and they are
(inaudible) the lots and developing housing. They are not lo~v income
houses they are actual market value housing of which they agreed to
give to the City of Plainfield 5% of the proceeds of the sale. If the lot
is not marketable, meaning that it is not big enough to hold a house,
they will turn it over to the communities for gardens. When we go by
Union Street by the Church we see that abandoned house and you see
that "lovely" basement that is fenced in. Is it the community pool?
When it rains it fills and it is disgusting there. She said there are thirty
seven abandoned buildings in Carteret that she has counted herself.
Thirty seven abandoned buildings in a town this size is ridiculous. We
need to get more (inaudible). She said two years ago she stood up there
and told them to get more aggressive ~vith prostitution. Is it going to
take a child being hurt in one of these buildings or a Police Officer is
going to be hurt. We have crime, we have drugs, and we have
prostitution because xve have places for them to hide. She said that she
cannot stress it enough that unless we start coming very, very
progressive like so many other towns and if anyone wants a copy of
the article she will be very happy to mail it to them.
Mayor Failace asked Ms. Rodriguez to give a copy to the Municipal
Clerk and she will distribute it.
(Inaudible) said to Ms. Rodriguez that if he could he would take those
buildings down tomorrow (inaudible).
Ms. Rodriguez said there are little children that live next door to her
that go in there and play. It is really a problem and there has to be
something ~ve can do more aggressively. It has been this way for ten
years.
There being no further business or discussion, Upon MMS&C, by ADJOURNED
Councilmembers Reiman and Fazekas and unanimous affirmative vote
of the four (4) members present, the meeting was adjourned at
approximately 8:45 P.M.
